plastics in their eyes how do you know they gets smashed glass all over them the skin and everything this show patched up victims before giving its whole drinks as a nation which has never suffered at the hands of terrorists before he says norwegians just didn't know how to react. alarms from from course on the buildings. but also on the people shell things gaming rolling all this man's wife suffered severe short when their windows were blown else by the last but he says they're lucky to be a low life his thoughts go out to the many young victims of the second attack i think about the vision to shape their kids and i i think. they are in some places close to the two atrocities produced video acts of heroism but says that those sensors on the wall was a mass shooting experts say there's also closing anger to the attacks were allowed

to happen in the first place i'm going to ignore dozens of hate messages from suspect. you haven't really been prepared for the right wing extremism brave expressed fury at the government's open door policy on immigration in numerous blogs and twitter feeds this at the shootings may reflect growing national look position to flee immigration policies the political establishment the more they are relative the people but they have been areas where there are simply no immigrants for people in northern being pushed out of places they used to live live in their drop stuff are in jeopardy muslims claim this disappointment that the killer turned out to be wants they want this guy to be a muslim although most of you know. it's for them it's a little bit strange because he's in the region so they talk too much about islam and about us it is not about religion it's

a sin to be fed up with the brand of what's been dubbed radical liberalism it's the country's multicultural policies to turn the government against his own pulling away the far right sentiment. why did the norwegians all ready to admit and there's a polite and respectful attitude towards that kind of thing in mainstream media but the reality is that fifty percent of norwegians against multiculturalism as people here try to pick up the pieces and bring meaning to this twentieth already saying it will sell relations between communities some expect the crackdown by police on the e.u. growing far right movement while others fear this will only fuel resentment against europe's muslims victims are beginning to piece back together the shattered lawyers but say experts warn this might not be the last such attack as outrage at the

perceived failure of a multicultural society grows bush will see. someone who knows an aristocratic personally told r.t. he was shocked by the news but says oslo is a place where radicalism is in the air. i could not imagine i even imagine that. you must have been brainwashed he had an ego and especially who in relation to girls for example the there are other guys. who. have worked. a little bit better. but still on. the sand. beach. but there is. a nomination.

for you church that are trying to. all the other hand there is just a lay. down that you have. basically like just. the way. security analyst. thanks that norway was just not prepared for this type of crisis . what we're talking about here is a possibly a lack of resources is instructive today that the. the the the european organization pulling all the police forces in europe europe all. together . to setting up a group of fifty or so experts to aid police forces across europe people

looking inward as opposed to. the question there is why this is not dumb and not been done before because there are any number of reports that you can read on the internet and privately with those reports are classified. suggest that they the rise of right wing extremism in europe has been prevalent for a number of years so the question is why have we not milton to ourselves could be of good of these things much better probably we could have done. it where do we go from here. the norwegian attacks have sent shock waves around the world and sparked passionate debate on what lies behind such a brutal act on our website r t the calm we are asking what's the cornerstone of the region tragedy well so far the majority of you think sheer of fanaticism mr blame fewer people. from multiculturalism eleven percent say the reason is

global terrorism which penetrates everywhere and minority says it's down to the failure of security forces well you have a lot of snow your view by logging onto our t.v. dot com and. on the way here on our t.v. public privacy in the gutter. we decided well but looks a little differently must be arabic these are of the must have explosives ignorance is the basis of national policy is a pretty scary situation. find out how activists are linking the rupert murdoch phone hacking scandal to the tactics of the state. plus nato begins with drawing combat troops from afghanistan but are the local security forces ready to fan for themselves stay with us for a special report from the war zone. meantime greece has seen

a glimpse of hope after european leaders came up with a plan to fight its debt crisis after a long ago she ations e.u. governments agreed on a range of measures designed to help the debt stricken country to avoid a default greece will receive a new bailout worth an estimated one hundred nine billion euros the move will see interest rates on greek debt lowered and the period in which it must repay its loans doubled greece has been battling its debt crisis for the past eighteen months and has seen violent protests from a dissolution public some critics think the second cash handout will not be the miracle cure that greece needs to avoid default. and i think it's going to prolong the agony unfortunately alone more money has been thrown at the greek economy in the hope that that can stop the contagion but really a lot of it just looks like hype and i'm very very concerned that we haven't actually find a cure we've just got another sticking plaster you know what really the european

union are trying to do here is they're trying to stanch the blood that's flowing the money that's flowing out of the greek economy that can has been kicked down the road the danger of contagion still leaking to other countries such as ireland portugal even italy and spain are there and therefore we don't have a cure but what we've seen so far unfortunately looks like holy words and holy words do not inspire confidence in markets and that has got to be some degree of a problem for the euro in the longer term. financial woes are rife across the atlantic where the u.s. president has held emergency talks with congressional leaders barack obama cuse party members of risking and new global catastrophe after talks to avert a dead default collapsed. congress must approve a plan to allow more borrowing on top of its current fourteen trillion dollars level before august second if the decision is made by then the country could run out of money to pay its bills and may have to take measures that would threaten the

global economic recovery both democrats and republicans are divided over details of the package of spending cuts tax rises the deal offered by the president includes cuts to medical costs and other entitlements as investigative journalist greg palast says it's the ordinary americans who will have to foot the bill for their governments since. george bush when he was president in two thousand and one to two thousand and eight when i why i know that he had a surplus given jim an eighty six billion dollars a year by bill clinton turned that into a six hundred million dollars per year deficit adding three trillion dollars us. eric cantor voted for all those for bush's wars and for the weapons for the tax cuts now these guys don't want to pay the bill they got to say that the that the tax cuts for the rich that bush is or is somehow the compromise means that.

this should in dollars will be paid for by eliminating benefits for the working class b. american people the elderly people on social security didn't encourage the death veterans receiving better veterans benefits didn't increase the debt it was the result of bush's wars bush's tax cuts while spending for these programs. earlier this week media mogul rupert murdoch had appeared before and u.k. parliamentary inquiry on the phone hacking scandal but he now could face legal challenges in the u.s. over claims the voice mails of nine eleven victims were also targeted his son news international chairman james murdoch has been accused of trying to mislead british m.p.'s after saying he was unaware of the troop stand up with phone hacking by reporters prime minister david cameron thing led to calls for him to answer further questions after his evidence was challenge meanwhile britain's hacking scandal

appears to be spreading beyond words newspapers with claims the sunday mera tabloid also infiltrated the voice messages of celebrities but as our. courts critics believe the issue is just the tip of the iceberg and a society that no longer values the privacy of the people. as the scandal over phone hacking by the murdoch's media empire rages on public and political fury has mainly focused on ruthless tabloids out of control prepared to invade people's private lives and even the dad to get the story but some say in this day and age the whole concept of privacy is falling apart and in the us more rapidly than elsewhere every time you tap on your cell or click on google or use your mail service everybody's sort of just clicks through that you agree to our terms and conditions well those terms and conditions are very very heavily weighted against

you and your privacy interests and we see you breaches of privacy happening. all across america all across the world really in every sector surveillance is rampant but really this is all a microcosm of the biggest surveil or all which is the state there's little americans can do with the state having sweeping access to their private information access that followed the nine eleven terrorist attacks under a new law known as the patriot act haasan. no law his privacy was taken away from him in two thousand and two when he was detained by the f.b.i. for absolutely no reason he says and scrutinized for months without charge he's response for nine years he has voluntarily documented nearly every waking hour of his life on the web he has subsequently even turned it into a form of art see all the toilets that i've used so you know that over here for example you know that on sunday november twenty fourth of two thousand and seven i've used this toilet i went grocery shopping at safeway over there on october

seventeenth i got gas over here he posts copies of every debit card transaction so you can see what he bought where and when a g.p.s. device in his pocket reports his real time physical location on a map and this is the shot he took on his way to our studio which was immediately uploaded on his website hazen says his extraordinary abandonment of his own privacy stems from the ignorance of the authorities but in the fear they decided well that guy looks a little different so he must be arab and if he's arab then he must have explosives everyone knows that and that's the logic we're operating we we realize how ridiculous that logic sounds but when your country when your own country takes that on as the basis for national policy. ignorance as the basis of national policy is a pretty scary situation. and that's how i got caught up in it for ha son piracy has become a rally of the past and he says he's not surprised that journalists or anyone else

really would use the same surveillance tactics as the state in that sense it might be of no surprise that the chief architect of the patriot act the lawyer who put it together happens to be one of murdoch's hand-picked used for gore directors you didn't serve as assistant attorney general in the bush administration and was described by some as the purveyor of the most sweeping curtailment of freedom in the u.s. since the mccarthy era at a time when corporations and the government can easily hack into people's private lives it doesn't come as a surprise when for example social networks give your personal information to ads companies or when other industries leave breaching people buy those things in the u.s. it's so widespread and people have gotten so used to it that rupert murdoch seems to be perfect part of the system rather than some special bill and with corporation has been undertaking some unique all lawful practices because here in america

they're not so unique i'm going to check our reporting from washington r.t. . james combat the editor of the impact of news a website says the public's trust has been seriously undermined by the phone hacking scandal. to find out that certain officers had been on the payroll of these organizations and providing details today to the journalists who are involved in a scandal that in itself is quite a disgrace and it does raise the question of who is properly qualified to to look into this into to form a proper investigation certainly not the police itself investigating itself that would be ridiculous at this point and the idea again of a parliamentary inquiry it has to be at least seem to be completely free of ties to the prime minister's office certainly and into any other n.p.c. may have been implicated in the scandal so it's going to be an incredible mess unfortunately for the british people to be sorting through right now and i think trust in the public institutions has been necessarily eroded by this appalling

disgraceful conduct on the part of so many different people in whom the public has invested so much trust. now let's take a look at some other stories from around the world and nato has carried out at least seven new air strikes in the libyan capital hitting colonel gadhafi is residential compound state television report of the nato strikes have hit three civilian and military sites on friday and a large crowd rallied in the capital in a show of support for the colonel whose exact whereabouts are still unknown going for evolution started in february with the nato led coalition launching air strikes in march. two high speed trains have crashed into each other in eastern china killing at least thirty two people and leaving more than one hundred injured reports say one of the bullet train stopped after it was hit by an lightning or being hit by another train from behind to train coaches fell off a bridge as a result of a crash. rescue operation continues on the side of fishel say carriage can carry up

to one hundred people or. more hundreds of protesters from across spain have gathered in madrid angry over the government's handling of the country's economic crisis activists have spent about a month marching to the capital from their hometowns holding meetings in every city and gathering supporters the protesters are calling for the fight against twenty one percent unemployment rate and stiff staring measures implemented to cut spring's deficit. emergency crews are preparing to seal the sunken pleasure cruiser after it was told to shallow waters in russia's republic of tatarstan the task now is to pump water from the sunken halt to make red light enough to lift and once on earth examine the ship to determine what caused the wreckage the country's worst river disaster in years happened on the volga river two weeks ago when the boat with over two hundred aboard went down in minutes one hundred fourteen people have

a joint raid by nato and afghan forces has left sixteen militants dead in the south of the country the operation comes in response to renewed taliban activity asked foreign combat troops began their withdrawal from afghanistan nato as new military commander in the country general john allen warns of tough times ahead for more after the afghan president's half brother who ran the south of the country was recently gunned down by insurgents one of comic cars ice top advisors has also been assassinated anti-war activist brian becker thinks the u.s. led coalition is losing its grip on afghanistan. they can't win by staying in fact their presence is becoming the main catalyst for the armed insurgency not only the telegram but maybe one hundred forty armed groups and they can't leave either because if they leave there will be a perception that the us and nato were defeated by an armed insurgency but this dilemma must be solved some way so ultimately the united states cannot prevail the

assassination of karzai as brother and his inner circle shows that the edifice of the karzai regime necessary at least to get afghan face to the nato occupation that itself is now crumbling and these armed attacks these assassination attempts are designed to create panic and i think in all likelihood they are creating panic within the very heart the foundation of the karzai government the u.s. is losing grown steadily its spending one hundred twenty billion dollars a year that's an increasing amount from the treasury that's already drained based on huge budget deficits here the number of casualties on the afghan and american side is is increasing not decreasing and yet they're no closer to victory in fact they're losing control of the country and the government that they sponsor is is in fact in danger of crumbly i would say the u.s. hasn't gained anything i think the u.s. is losing ground it's spite of what david petraeus and the obama administration say this is a bad situation possibly

a catastrophe for the united states. analysts also say the violence in afghanistan is being presented by local security forces which contain drug addicts and those connected to the taliban despite this nato has begun handing control over parts of the country to the locals but there is concern afghans are too divided untrained and ill equipped to fend off the insurgency by themselves jason reports from kabul . there's confusion on the faces of the afghan army soldiers as a firefight unfolds on the other side of the wall lucky for them this is the kabul military training center in the bullets being fired blanks the men here halfway through a ten week program and the officers don't cut the many slack when it's over the be deployed eastern province one of afghanistan's most violent corners mob but we must push them hard so they can perform under pressure day by day we're making progress the afghan national army has already come a long way its ranks have swollen to about one hundred seventy thousand troops

thanks to fresh waves of recruits attracted by higher wages and extra perks the soldiers insist they are all united in their desire to beat back the taliban led insurgency regardless of age or ethnicity then any are what we are old brothers and we are all called by one name ah by the call of duty has also struck a chord beyond able bodied males a first ever class of woman soldiers has just graduated. and there's even a mujahedeen unit made up of hardened veterans of the anti soviet jihad this is all good news to u.s. military planners who have set a two thousand and fourteen going to hand over security responsibilities to the afghans the afghan army enjoys a much better reputation in the police force and has even been featured in the recent movie. but is the army takes greater responsibility for security around the country there are concerns that the quantity of troops may be coming at the expense of quality for starters more than eighty percent of troops are illiterate a big problem with an ability to read maps and numbers can spell the difference

between life and death adding to the woes are widespread drug use in desertions today roughly one in four combat soldiers quit their post critics also point out that the military leadership is made up of many rival ex warlords who still command loyalties along regional and ethnic lines and could drive the country deeper into conflict as the u.s. begins to scale back its role as custodian this summer there are concerns that these divisions may flare up if i was not neutral. it would be you know ninety's you would be fighting each other be killing each other these people by the name of joe hockey groups or other groups who control their kids yet another obstacle for a young army that still has much to afford can still feel jason whitlock called for tom. and coming up as our interview with a second man to set foot on the moon that's right after a recap our top stories in a few moments.
